First Quarter Performance Propels Deutsche Bank to Highest Profit Since 2013

Earlier, Deutsche Bank reported a net profit attributable to shareholders of €1.275 billion ($1.365 billion) for the first quarter, indicating a 10% increase from the same period last year, as reported by Finance Magnates. Surpassing analysts' forecasts of €1.23 billion, this figure marks the bank's highest first-quarter profit since 2013. Additionally, the bank's revenue climbed 1% year-on-year to €7.8 billion, attributed to growth in commissions and fee income, coupled with robust performance in fixed income and currencies.

“This quarter we achieved double-digit profit growth, and our highest first quarter profit since 2013, through disciplined execution of our Global Hausbank strategy,” Christian Sewing, the Chief Executive Officer of Deutsche Bank, commented.
